TestFlight: Apple provides TestFlight a platform for over-the-air distribution of beta builds. Developers can use TestFlight to invite users to test their apps without requiring UDID. Ask your developer if they can upload the app to TestFlight and invite you to join the testing group. Ad Hoc Distribution: Developers can create an ad hoc distribution provisioning profile that allows them to distribute the app to a limited number of devices without going through the App Store. Your developer can create an ad hoc build and provide you with an IPA file. You can then install this IPA file using tools like Xcode or third-party services. Build and Install Locally: If the developer is willing to provide you with the source code you can build the app locally using Xcode on your machine and install it on your device. This requires some technical knowledge and access to a Mac with Xcode installed. Apple Developer Account Access: Instead of providing your UDID you can ask the developer to add your Apple ID as a team member with the necessary roles. This way you'll have access to the necessary certificates and profiles allowing you to build and install the app on your own.
